KASHIOUS: Roots in Clay, Voice in Heaven.
If ever asked to define “What makes Soul so unique…so infectious…so appealing?,” there’s only one answer. It’s the voice. That smooth…powerful…pure…sexy VOICE.
It defines the indefinable essence of the genre like no other. And if you want to cite a prime example of “that voice,” you need go no further than KASHIOUS.
KASHIOUS’s incredible voice grows from its deep earthy roots of clay and soars to the heavens with an amazing tonal span that clearly defines the term “soaring tenor.” That’s Soul.
Born and raised in Washington, D.C., KASHIOUS found his start in a truly gifted musical family. His mother, brother and sister, all gifted vocalists, shared their love of music both in the home and at church. And like many of the R&B greats before him, saw that deep-seated love and attraction to all thing musical blossom with his exposure to the true grit and soul baring performances of artists like B.B. King, Ernie Isley, Marvin Gaye and Aaron Neville. It’s art from the heart that transfixed him and influenced his style.
As a child, KASHIOUS would listen to their music over and over while strumming his guitar until he had the chords down perfectly. He had to know the same joy and depth of feeling on a personal level that he experienced when listening to these greats. He approached each performance from every angle, which meant he taught himself those performances note for note…not only on guitar, but on the drums, the bass and the keyboard, too.
But it’s that voice that sets him apart…that raises him to the rarely achieved level of expression best exemplified by his mentoring artists works.
Singer, songwriter and musician, it’s KASHIOUS’s voice that can bring the unprepared listener to his or her knees; it is that powerful, that extraordinary and that very, very rare. It’s that rare voice that cuts from the earthy heart of his existence to reach legendary heights of expression. Yes, he’s been compared to greats like Luther Vandross and Marvin Gaye, but the quality and beauty of his voice belong to him, and him alone.
In his first R & B single, “Lov’z Eternal,” he speaks with compassion and pain, of enduring that “dark place” more than necessary. His vocal harmonies only add to its impact. Other songs such as “Bad Luck” and “The Way I Am” range in genres blending funk, jazz, and soul.
It’s been no easy journey. With the encouragement of his family, KASHIOUS left Colorado where he’d spent some fifteen years of his life, and made the move to San Diego in 2005. All in pursuit of his life’s dream.
In October of 2006, producer Rusty Gordon discovered this amazing talent, and believed that this was a talent that had to be heard. Under Gordon’s direction, KASHIOUS’s dynamic vocal range and songwriting abilities are showcased on his debut CD, “Kashious.”
He’s currently in the studio working on his next CD, with a target release of August 2007, and preparing to tour in fall 2007.
You have begun your journey into KASHIOUS’s music...For any lover of heartfelt musical expression, it’s a journey well worth embarking upon!
